Lyrical poem accompanied by dreamy, sun-drenched illustrations in a children's picure book or handsome coffee table book. Poem is calming and comforting to young and old alike.

"The days are getting warmer, but there's still a faint chill

Rain has painted emerald every borough, tree and hill

Petals waft like snowflakes onto arbors and fronds

Tadpoles wriggle mightily in shady, lazy ponds

Daffodils poke their heads up, then gaze at their feet

Tulips stand in glory and won't admit defeat

Ducks quack their welcome to their newly hatched chicks

Egret, cormorant and swan add their chorus to the mix

Fawns take their first steps under Doe's watchful eye

Fledglings spread their wings and learn how to fly

The sweet smell of hyacinth competes with fresh mown lawn

Too soon, daylight hours will lengthen and Spring will have gone."
